SEC Already Affecting Recruiting

[Bsscowboy835]

A&M just swiped Colin Blake, who chose A&M based on "Gameday experience" and "Competition they will play in the SEC." Interesting. Many had thought he was awaiting a scholarship offer from Texas.

Sorry, here is the link.

Colin Blake

ESPN has reported that he committed to A&M this morning.

ROFLMFA, No wonder UT wants to kill the A&M game

So....A&M picking up a 3-star that didn't have an offer from Texas is something new?

Sounds like the recruit is just mad Brown never offered him and wanted to justify going to A&M.

Shouldnt they wait until the SEC actually invites them

 

[MangoTango]

you shut your mouth. he clearly understands the value of the SEC

ssshhhhhhh

Aggie REALLY BELIEVES that simply being in the SEC is going to magically make every top recruit want to go there.

I mean, no recruits actually go to a program because they win games and titles, its ALL about conference affiliation, LMAO

 

[Bsscowboy835]

Haha. Not quite an Aggy. Naval Academy man. Just appreciate Texas football and am intrigued as to how the upcoming moves will affect everyone.

Depends on who you look at for rankings. Rivals has him as a 4-star.

Have no idea what you're talking about......every post on this board I'm in is about football.

 

[Bsscowboy835]

Haha. Why does everything turn into hideous vitriol? Not much different from the old ESPN boards. Where's Roxter?

He ain't comin.

He ain't comin.

What?! I miss his irrational posts. A source of cheer and laughter in my messageboard life.

I think he went to dixies board.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Maybe he just wants to play in bowl games....

 

[starbigd]

Maybe he just wants to play in bowl games....

LOL

If he wanted to WIN bowl games, I could see your point - instead of being blown out of the stadium every few years they actually make a bowl

 

[Bsscowboy835]

Speaking of getting blown out, where do you guys think Oregon will drop after getting slammered by LSU?

Ahhh, this is what I love about that Horn philosophy. Screw the 3 and 4 star recruits that actually love playing the game. Instead they want all the 5 stars....with rap sheets longer than a first down marker. Remember when USC got all high and mighty on their program and went 5 star recruits 2 deep at every position? Yeahhhhhh, how did that work out for them again? Welcome to the dark years Texas. You won't be playing Rice every week.

Colt McCoy was a 3 star recruit.
